Customers Drive All Our Decisions

We achieve this by putting our customers at the heart of everything we do to make the Berkeley buying experience as easy as possible.

First, we strive to understand what our customers want and need: well- built homes, in a pleasant and safe neighbourhood, with plenty of amenities and good transport connections. Then we apply that understanding to all our planning and design decisions.

And for every new development, we challenge ourselves to go further, to improve and innovate, ensuring we satisfy the real needs of our customers in inspiring and sustainable ways.

Commitment to the Future

When we plan a development, we take a long-term view of how the community we create can thrive in years to come.

Our aim is to permanently enhance the neighbourhoods in which they are located. We focus on high quality landscaping, sympathetic architecture or restoration, and strong sustainability standards to ensure every community continues to thrive for decades to come.

We don't just build for today; we build for the future too.

Quality First to Last

Quality is the defining characteristic of Berkeley developments, right down to the very last detail.

We choose our locations, style of homes, construction practices, materials and specifications with great care.

When you buy a new home from Berkeley you can be safe in the knowledge that it is built to high standards of design and quality, has low environmental impact and that you will receive a professional, efficient and helpful service from us.

Choice and Diversity

No two Berkeley customers are the same, so we aim to offer a wide choice of property location, size and type.

From central London to major towns and cities; from market towns to rural villages, countryside to the coast - we build in locations our customers love. We aim to build not just homes but neighbourhoods and communities to support the residents, including modern facilities and conveniences built in by design.

And whatever home you are looking for, whether that's a city penthouse, a modern studio apartment or traditional family home, you will find the perfect fit for your lifestyle.

Green Living

We are committed to creating a better environment within our developments and in the areas that surround them.

That's why we build on brownfield sites (previously developed land now unused) whenever we can, bringing new life to unloved spaces. We take care to protect the natural environment and enhance biodiversity. Many developments are designed to deliver measurable biodiversity net gain, creating more natural habitat than was originally on the site.

All our homes are planned with future-thinking and sustainability in mind. They are designed to reduce water and energy consumption, and to enable residents to recycle waste.
